This product has outstanding machinability, excellent high-speed cutting rates, and exceptional feed rates, all of which contribute to reducing machining time and improving efficiency. Chalco Aluminum offers improved performance characteristics when compared to standard aluminum tooling plate, including stringent flatness tolerances that are unsurpassed in the industry.
5052/5083 is known for being one of the easiest types of aluminum to weld and also known for its resistance to salt water. They are widely used in the bodies of ships, buses, trucks, trailers and chemical barrels. One side of these sheets and bars is polished to a brushed or mirrored finish. The polished surface is covered with a protective release film.

5052/5083 high-precision ultra-flat aluminum plate is mainly used for electronic and electrical product accessories, medical equipment, optical instruments, high-precision tooling, fixtures, and carriers.
6061 aluminum sheet is the standard aluminum sheet for general purpose applications. Silicon and magnesium are the main alloying elements of this heat treatable aluminum alloy. it has good formability, weldability and corrosion resistance and often be used in structural applications.
Although it may not be as machineable as 2024 and 7075, it is certainly used in many machined part applications that do not require the higher strength levels present in 7075 and 2024.
One of the main benefits of choosing the 6061 High Precision Ultra Flat is the versatility of the alloy. It is suitable for all fields such as electronics and agriculture, and also for storage tanks, hydraulic cylinders, pipes, construction and even sporting goods.
Advantage of using 6061 aluminum sheet is corrosion resistance, which is a major benefit if your product is frequently exposed to weather, humidity or extreme temperature changes.

This special aluminum or precision plate can be used for almost any application or general purpose project. Alloy 6061 is suitable for the following projects:
The main alloying element in 7075 is zinc. 7075 is the first Al-Zn-Mg-Cu high-strength alloy with added chromium as an alloying element, so that the sheet has good resistance to stress corrosion cracking. Although 7075 aluminum is not weldable, has low levels of corrosion resistance, and offers only average performance, this alloy has considerable fatigue strength.
Alloy 7075 has a high strength-to-density ratio and is commonly used in applications such as rock climbing equipment, hang glider airframes, and military rifles. 7075 aluminum is still considered the alloy of choice for today's aircraft and aerospace industries.
